Description

光照射裝置Light irradiation device

本發明涉及一種光照射裝置,其使用LED(Light Emitting Diode)作為光源,對以中心軸為中心旋轉的立體照射對象物照射紫外光。The present invention relates to a light irradiation device that uses an LED (Light Emitting Diode) as a light source and irradiates ultraviolet light to a three-dimensional irradiation object rotating around a central axis.

當前,作為用於對啤酒或果汁的罐子/塑膠瓶、洗髮劑或化妝品的瓶子等容器進行印刷的墨水,使用利用紫外光的照射進行硬化的紫外線硬化型墨水。並且,在這種紫外線硬化型墨水的硬化時,通常使用照射紫外光的紫外光照射裝置。Currently, as inks for printing containers such as beer / juice cans / plastic bottles, shampoos, and cosmetic bottles, ultraviolet-curable inks that are cured by irradiation with ultraviolet light are used. When curing such an ultraviolet curable ink, an ultraviolet light irradiation device that irradiates ultraviolet light is generally used.

例如,在專利文獻1中,記載了使用墨水噴頭在罐體(照射對象物)的外周面形成圖像的圖像形成裝置。該裝置具有插入至罐體的內部而對罐體進行支撐的支撐筒(芯軸)、相對於由支撐筒所支撐的罐體的外周面噴出紫外線硬化型墨水的墨水噴頭、及UVLED燈等。並且,專利文獻1的裝置,通過一邊使罐體旋轉一邊噴出紫外線硬化型墨水,在罐體的外周面形成圖像,通過對該罐體的外周面照射來自於UVLED燈的紫外光,從而使在罐體的外周面附著的紫外線硬化型墨水硬化。 [現有技術文獻] [專利文獻]For example, Patent Document 1 describes an image forming apparatus that uses an ink jet head to form an image on the outer peripheral surface of a tank (irradiation target). This device includes a support cylinder (mandrel) inserted into the tank body to support the tank body, an ink jet head that ejects ultraviolet curable ink to the outer peripheral surface of the tank body supported by the support cylinder, a UVLED lamp, and the like. Further, the device of Patent Document 1 ejects ultraviolet curable ink while rotating the can body to form an image on the outer peripheral surface of the can body, and irradiates the outer peripheral surface of the can body with ultraviolet light from a UV LED lamp, thereby making The UV-curable ink adhered to the outer peripheral surface of the can body is cured.

[發明所欲解決的課題][Problems to be Solved by the Invention]

根據專利文獻1的結構,利用相對於罐體的中心軸平行地配置的UVLED燈,可以使在罐體的外周面附著的紫外線硬化型墨水硬化。但是,由於UVLED燈被固定在與支撐筒(即,罐體的外周面)隔著特定距離的位置,因此如果罐體的尺寸(直徑)不同,則工作距離(罐體的外周面與UVLED燈間的距離)會改變,罐體的外周面處的紫外光的照射強度也改變,因此存在下述問題,即,如果要應對多品種的罐體,則必須與罐體的尺寸對應而變更紫外光的照射強度,或者必須變更照射時間。另外,存在為了變更紫外光的照射強度或照射時間而產生準備時間的問題。According to the structure of Patent Document 1, the UV-curable ink adhered to the outer peripheral surface of the can body can be cured by a UVLED lamp arranged in parallel with the central axis of the can body. However, since the UVLED lamp is fixed at a certain distance from the support tube (that is, the outer peripheral surface of the tank body), if the size (diameter) of the tank body is different, the working distance (the outer peripheral surface of the tank body and the UVLED lamp) Distance) will change, and the intensity of ultraviolet light irradiation on the outer surface of the tank will also change. Therefore, there is a problem that if you want to deal with a variety of tanks, you must change the UV according to the size of the tank. The irradiation intensity of light, or the irradiation time must be changed. In addition, there is a problem that a preparation time is required to change the irradiation intensity or irradiation time of the ultraviolet light.

以下,參照附圖對本發明的實施方式詳細地進行說明。此外,對圖中相同或相當的部分標注相同的標號,將省略其說明。 (第1實施方式)Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

圖1是表示使用了本發明的第1實施方式涉及的光照射裝置10的光照射系統1的結構的立體圖。如圖1所示,光照射系統1是用於硬化在照射對象物P的表面塗敷的紫外線硬化型墨水的系統,包括插入照射對象物P的內部而對照射對象物P進行支撐的支撐筒(芯軸)50、和相對於照射對象物P的外周面照射線狀的紫外光的光照射裝置10。支撐筒50利用未圖示的電動機沿順時針方向旋轉,伴隨支撐筒50的旋轉,安裝於支撐筒50前端的照射對象物P旋轉。此外,如圖1所示,在本實施方式中,為了說明的方便,將照射對象物P設為呈大致圓筒狀的形狀,以照射對象物P的旋轉中心為中心軸AX進行說明。另外,以下,本說明書中,將從光照射裝置10射出的線狀紫外光的長邊(線長)方向定義為X軸方向,將短邊方向定義為Y軸方向,將與X軸及Y軸正交的方向定義為Z軸而進行說明。另外,通常所謂紫外光表示波長400nm以下的光,但在本說明書中,所謂紫外光表示可以使紫外線硬化型墨水硬化的波長(例如,波長250~420nm)的光。FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration of a light irradiation system 1 using a light irradiation device 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the light irradiation system 1 is a system for curing an ultraviolet curable ink applied on the surface of the irradiation target P, and includes a support tube inserted into the irradiation target P and supporting the irradiation target P. (Mandrel) 50 and a light irradiation device 10 that irradiates linear ultraviolet light to the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P. The support cylinder 50 is rotated in a clockwise direction by a motor (not shown), and with the rotation of the support cylinder 50, the irradiation target P attached to the front end of the support cylinder 50 is rotated. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, in the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the irradiation target object P is formed into a substantially cylindrical shape, and the rotation center of the irradiation target object P will be described as the central axis AX. In addition, in the following description, the long-side (line-length) direction of the linear ultraviolet light emitted from the light irradiation device 10 is defined as the X-axis direction, and the short-side direction is defined as the Y-axis direction. A direction in which the axes are orthogonal is defined as the Z-axis and described. The ultraviolet light generally refers to light having a wavelength of 400 nm or less, but in this specification, the ultraviolet light refers to light having a wavelength (for example, a wavelength of 250 to 420 nm) that can cure an ultraviolet curable ink.

如圖1所示,本實施方式的光照射裝置10包括基台11、光源單元12、橢圓反射鏡14、及用於容納基台11、光源單元12及橢圓反射鏡14的殼體(未圖示)等。As shown in FIG. 1, the light irradiation device 10 according to this embodiment includes a base 11, a light source unit 12, an elliptical mirror 14, and a housing (not shown) for accommodating the base 11, the light source unit 12, and the elliptical mirror 14. Show) and so on.

基台11是與X軸方向及Y軸方向平行的金屬製的板狀部件,配置為與光源單元12的基板12a的背面緊貼,對光源單元12進行支撐,並且是作為對由光源單元12產生的熱進行散熱的所謂散熱器起作用的部件。The base 11 is a metal plate-shaped member that is parallel to the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction. The base 11 is disposed in close contact with the back surface of the substrate 12 a of the light source unit 12, and supports the light source unit 12. A component called a heat sink that dissipates the generated heat.

圖2是光源單元12的前視圖(從Z軸的正方向側觀察的圖)。如圖2所示,光源單元12具有與X軸方向及Y軸方向平行的矩形的基板12a、以及在基板12a上配置的多個LED元件12b。FIG. 2 is a front view of the light source unit 12 (a view viewed from the positive direction side of the Z axis). As shown in FIG. 2, the light source unit 12 includes a rectangular substrate 12 a parallel to the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, and a plurality of LED elements 12 b arranged on the substrate 12 a.

基板12a是由熱傳導率高的材料(例如,氮化鋁)形成的矩形配線基板,如圖2所示,在其表面沿X軸方向以特定的間距(例如,3.0mm)COB(Chip On Board)貼裝10個LED元件12b。在基板12a上,形成用於向各LED元件12b供給電力的陽極圖案(未圖示)及陰極圖案(未圖示),各LED元件12b與陽極圖案及陰極圖案分別電性連接。另外,基板12a利用未圖示的配線線纜與驅動電路(未圖示)電性連接,從驅動電路經由陽極圖案及陰極圖案向各LED元件12b供給驅動電流。如果向各LED元件12b供給驅動電流,則從各LED元件12b射出與驅動電流對應的光量的紫外光(例如,波長365nm),從光源單元12射出與X軸方向平行的線狀紫外光。The substrate 12 a is a rectangular wiring substrate formed of a material having high thermal conductivity (for example, aluminum nitride). As shown in FIG. 2, the surface of the substrate 12 a is a COB (Chip On Board) at a specific pitch (for example, 3.0 mm) along the X axis direction. ) Place 10 LED elements 12b. On the substrate 12a, an anode pattern (not shown) and a cathode pattern (not shown) for supplying power to each LED element 12b are formed, and each LED element 12b is electrically connected to the anode pattern and the cathode pattern, respectively. In addition, the substrate 12a is electrically connected to a driving circuit (not shown) by a wiring cable (not shown), and a driving current is supplied from the driving circuit to each LED element 12b via an anode pattern and a cathode pattern. When a driving current is supplied to each LED element 12b, ultraviolet light (for example, a wavelength of 365 nm) of a light amount corresponding to the driving current is emitted from each LED element 12b, and linear ultraviolet light parallel to the X-axis direction is emitted from the light source unit 12.

如果向光源單元12供給電力,從各LED元件12b射出紫外光,則因LED元件12b的自身發熱而溫度上升,產生發光效率顯著地下降的問題,但在本實施方式中,由於利用基台11將光源單元12冷卻,因此會抑制這種問題的產生。When power is supplied to the light source unit 12 and ultraviolet light is emitted from each of the LED elements 12b, the temperature of the LED elements 12b increases due to the self-heating of the LED elements 12b. This causes a problem that the luminous efficiency is significantly lowered. Since the light source unit 12 is cooled, the occurrence of such a problem is suppressed.

橢圓反射鏡14是用於對來自於光源單元12的紫外光進行反射的金屬制製的部件,以從Z軸的正方向側覆蓋光源單元12的方式安裝於殼體(未圖示)內(圖1)。在橢圓反射鏡14與光源單元12相對側的表面塗覆金屬薄膜等光反射性材料,以形成反射面14a。本實施方式的橢圓反射鏡14的反射面14a成為沿X軸方向延伸的橢圓面,在從X軸方向觀察時,在其第一焦點位置處配置光源單元12的各LED元件12b。The elliptical mirror 14 is a metal member that reflects ultraviolet light from the light source unit 12 and is mounted in a housing (not shown) so as to cover the light source unit 12 from the positive direction side of the Z axis ( figure 1). A surface of the elliptical mirror 14 opposite to the light source unit 12 is coated with a light reflective material such as a metal thin film to form a reflective surface 14a. The reflection surface 14a of the elliptical mirror 14 according to this embodiment is an elliptical surface extending in the X-axis direction. When viewed from the X-axis direction, each LED element 12b of the light source unit 12 is arranged at its first focal position.

In addition, in FIG. 3, P1 represents the irradiation object P having the smallest size (for example, a diameter of 20 mm), and P2 represents the irradiation object P having the largest size (for example, a diameter of 60 mm).

如圖3所示,在本實施方式中,構成為在橢圓反射鏡14的第二焦點位置處配置照射對象物P的中心軸AX,從光源單元12射出的紫外光(各光線)向照射對象物P的中心軸AX聚光。因此,無論是在照射對象物P的尺寸小的情況下(P1),還是在照射對象物P的尺寸大的情況下(P2),從光源單元12射出的紫外光均確實地入射至照射對象物P的外周面。因此,即使變更照射對象物P的尺寸,也可以在照射對象物P的外周面獲得特定強度的紫外光。即,根據本實施方式的結構,在每次變更照射對象物P的尺寸時,不必變更照射強度或照射時間。換而言之,本發明即使變更以中心軸AX為中心旋轉的照射對象物P的尺寸(直徑或半徑),也可以向照射對象物P的外周面照射特定強度的紫外光。As shown in FIG. 3, in the present embodiment, the central axis AX of the irradiation target P is arranged at the second focal position of the elliptical mirror 14, and ultraviolet light (each light) emitted from the light source unit 12 is directed toward the irradiation target. The central axis AX of the object P condenses light. Therefore, whether the size of the irradiation target P is small (P1) or the size of the irradiation target P is large (P2), the ultraviolet light emitted from the light source unit 12 is surely incident on the irradiation target. The outer peripheral surface of the object P. Therefore, even if the size of the irradiation target P is changed, ultraviolet light of a specific intensity can be obtained on the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P. That is, according to the configuration of this embodiment, it is not necessary to change the irradiation intensity or irradiation time each time the size of the irradiation target P is changed. In other words, according to the present invention, even if the size (diameter or radius) of the irradiation target P rotated around the central axis AX is changed, the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P can be irradiated with a specific intensity of ultraviolet light.

例如,在本實施方式的各LED元件12b上,還可以配置半球狀或炮彈狀的封裝透鏡。根據這種結構,由於可以使從各LED元件12b射出的紫外光的擴展角變狹窄,因此可以減小橢圓反射鏡14的尺寸。For example, a package lens of a hemispherical shape or a cannonball shape may be disposed on each of the LED elements 12b in this embodiment. According to this configuration, since the spreading angle of the ultraviolet light emitted from each LED element 12b can be narrowed, the size of the elliptical mirror 14 can be reduced.

另外,在本實施方式中,說明了在橢圓反射鏡14的第二焦點位置處配置照射對象物P的中心軸AX,從光源單元12射出的紫外光(各光線)向照射對象物P的中心軸AX聚光,但並不一定限定於這種結構。橢圓反射鏡14只要具有使光向中心軸AX會聚的反射面即可,也可以取代橢圓反射鏡14,使用具有抛物面的反射鏡的抛物面反射鏡。 (第2實施方式)In addition, in the present embodiment, it has been described that the central axis AX of the irradiation target object P is arranged at the second focal position of the elliptical mirror 14, and the ultraviolet light (each light) emitted from the light source unit 12 is directed toward the center of the irradiation target object P. The axis AX condenses light, but it is not necessarily limited to this structure. As long as the elliptical mirror 14 has a reflecting surface for condensing light toward the central axis AX, a parabolic mirror having a parabolic mirror may be used instead of the elliptical mirror 14.

The peripheral surface of P. Therefore, even if the size of the irradiation target P is changed, ultraviolet light of a specific intensity can be obtained on the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P.

As shown in FIG. 6, the light irradiation system 1C according to this embodiment is different from the light irradiation system 1 according to the first embodiment in that it has a lifting mechanism that raises and lowers the light irradiation device 10C according to the size (diameter) of the irradiation object P. 20, FIG. 6 (a) shows a state where the light irradiation device 10C is arranged close to the irradiation target object P1 having the smallest size, and FIG. 6 (b) shows a state where the light irradiation device 10C is arranged close to the irradiation object P2 having the largest size. status. The light irradiation device 10C of this embodiment is different from the light irradiation device 10 of the first embodiment in that the light source unit 12 is mounted downward (toward the negative direction side of the Y-axis) instead of the elliptical mirror 14. It has a pair of light guide mirrors 17. In addition, a known mechanism such as a slide can be used for the lifting mechanism 20, but in FIG. 6, the lifting mechanism 20 is simply shown in a block for convenience of explanation.

一對導光反射鏡17是用於將來自於光源單元12的紫外光向照射對象物P的外周面導光的光學部件,導光反射鏡17配置為從Z軸方向夾著LED元件12b的光路。本實施方式的一對導光反射鏡17,是在Z軸方向上隔著間隔p而在X軸方向平行地延伸的平行平板反射鏡,在各導光反射鏡17的內側的表面(彼此相對的表面)形成有反射面。The pair of light guide mirrors 17 is an optical member for guiding the ultraviolet light from the light source unit 12 toward the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P. The light guide mirror 17 is arranged to sandwich the LED element 12b in the Z-axis direction. Light path.

The main ray of the ultraviolet light (light having an extension angle of 0 °) passes through the central axis AX of the irradiation target P. As described above, since the interval p between the pair of light guide mirrors 17 is set to be sufficiently smaller than the diameter of the irradiation target object P1, when the irradiation target object P2 having the largest size is irradiated, the light emitted from the light source unit 12 is emitted. Ultraviolet light is also incident on the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P2 with certainty.

由此,在本實施方式的結構中,也與第1至第3實施方式同樣地,無論在照射對象物P的尺寸小的情況下(P1),還是在照射對象物P的尺寸大的情況下(P2),從光源單元12射出的紫外光均確實地入射至照射對象物P的外周面。因此,即使變更照射對象物P的尺寸,也可以在照射對象物P的外周面獲得特定強度的紫外光。即,根據本實施方式的結構,在每次變更照射對象物P的尺寸時,不必要變更照射強度或照射時間。Therefore, also in the configuration of this embodiment, similarly to the first to third embodiments, even when the size of the irradiation target P is small (P1), or when the size of the irradiation target P is large. Below (P2), all the ultraviolet light emitted from the light source unit 12 is surely incident on the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P. Therefore, even if the size of the irradiation target P is changed, ultraviolet light of a specific intensity can be obtained on the outer peripheral surface of the irradiation target P. That is, according to the configuration of the present embodiment, it is not necessary to change the irradiation intensity or irradiation time each time the size of the irradiation target P is changed.
